If so then i’m interpreting this as:

a\ 2 different bugs 

or 

b\ 6.10 issue is result of 6.9 bug

In such case i think we may:

1. fix 6.9 first (=get it stable for let say 30h continuous compil.)
2. apply fix to 6.10 then test stability on 6.10

May you pls help me with reducing amount of work here? 

1. by narrowing # of bisect iternations?
On my side each iteration is like
-build arch pkg
-install on builder
-compile till first hang (2..3h probably for bad) or 20h (for good)
this means days and i’m a bit short with time as all this is my hobby (so competes with all rest of my life...)

or

2. Ideally will be to have list of revert 6.9 commit candidates (starting from most probable falling commit)
i’ll revert and test

i’ll really appreciate help here….
